Dremel -Glass

[Fish]

Not woodwork but I had some fun with my dremel. I used a diamond tip...I did these when I thought my scroll saw was dead.

That is nice stuff. You should give us all classes on how to do these.

I like it !....Neat, do you use the dremel tip to etch the parts that you would leave if you were using the saw ?!?

You are multi talented Dan, very nice work!

Dan, your a man with some amazing skills. These two pieces are outstanding, how do you do it without breaking the glass? That's what always happened to me, when I tried to engrave glass. I print and write with a heavy hand, I think that's my problem when working with glass.

Thanks. I left the black or what would be cut out and etched the parts of it that would be left if cut with the saw. I didn't touch the glass very hard it's like your drawing a picture. The faster it's set the quicker and easier it goes. I always wore a dust mask too. You tape the pattern on to the back of the glass and it's like your tracing a picture. Much easier than it sounds.

Looks very nice Dan.  Thanks for sharing.  Since you said you did while you "thought" your saw was dead - hope that means you thought wrong!  

[Fish]

Thanks again. My saw wasn't broke. It ended up being one loose bolt. Works great now.

[Dan]

Awesome! Now, if I go around etching our windows, I'm pointing the finger at you.
